Jimmy was always a great player...but he is lazy as fuck.

You cannot have your team leader always acting up, missing games for no injury.
It looks bad to young players.

and year by year you could see Jimmy getting worse with his "I don't give a fuck about basketball" attitude.

Other player (when they are out) you would see them travel with their team as a "leader"

not Jimmy....he is in New York selling big ego coffee.

You saying all that but he still took that team to 2 finals appearances and then didn't want to pay the man. Yeah, I would act up too.

I don't care about the shit they say about butler, dude did shit his way but he was good player that got he heat to the finals twice which they lost and ran into 2 of best west teams at the time.

Riley, doesn't want to pay his players and expect them to work hard for nothing.

Heat Culture Is A fluke being used as slogan.

Also, if boston never paid their top players brown and tatum all that money, they would've acted up too demanding a trade.

It’s a great strategy. Timberwolves kind of did something similar in the playoffs last season. Coach JJ perfected it and now the blueprint is out there. Can’t do nothing but respect it and see how the Nuggets adjust lol.

It's definitely a great strategy, make the other players beat you!

You see that gold on his jersey?

He's halfway there

 

[KingTaharqa]

Celtics on rest mode right now.

The Celtics game is a national game....not because of the lakers....you should show more gratitude that you are allowed to play the Celtics on national prime time TV.

We like to give charity to the less fortunate.

You should be thanking us for allowing you to be in our presence

It's only nationally televised because of the Lakers. Nosebleeds are only $350 because LeBron is coming. Your ticket prices are never that high.

And knowing your stars are taking 2 games off for this one makes a win over the Lakers meaningless.

The issue is that Butler has too much outside of basketball distracting him.

Being traded was the best thing for him, (getting a wake up call)....and now he is on "act right"
Same thing happened to Luka. teams are tired of the diva shit from these players

Tatum and brown got paid because of "results" No team has more wins than those two in the past 6 years.
Tatum and brown don't have all that off the court stuff....they stay playing "Basketball"....what they are here to do.

Grand opening(2024)....Grand closing(2025)
It was a good one year run to the NBA final.....they should be glad!!!
RIP(rest in pieces) Mavs... you will be missed

Celtics are in rest mode...has nothing to do with the lakers(we have our seed)
But it will be great to destroy a luka-led Lakers team for the first time.

Finally the lakers have a player they can ride in the future.

None of your players are "RESTING" Saturday against Bron. The whole squad will be available. As defending champs, you guys are cheating the game not playing your guys 2 games in a row.

Then on Monday you got the Jazz at home, and you will rest guys again.

Lakers are a #2 seed too, but you don't see them "resting" guys just to get up to play Jayson Tatum.

Guess he ain't running for President... Lol

 

[TIMEISMONEY]

@TIMEISMONEY I wouldn't mind getting Cleveland in the first round. If we're healthy we can beat them

lol haven’t I been saying that lol
I would LOVE to see them in the 1st rd. I would be sitting with my popcorn every game like I got nothing to loose

 

[TIMEISMONEY]

Y'all not beating them, but if it makes you feel good and sleep well at night then so be it.

Keep the dream alive.

Play the games bro

 

[TIMEISMONEY]

If they aren't that good, they wouldn't be the #1 seed.

Miami isn't that good but you think they can beat the cavs.

Make it make sense.

We went to the finals 3 years ago with a play in team

 

[D'Evils]

NBA need a Flex Schedule....

@Amajorfucup

The difference is the Celtics are thinking titles. Lakers thing individual stats(as always).

Your are right about the lakers game...nothing warms the heart of a celtics fan
than destroying a Luka lead Lakers team(it's like killing two birds with one stone)

Nobody is cheated ; as Celtics fans all know the season is a warmup for the Celtics in the NBA finals.

The only thing you are right about is the celtics will rest "everybody" tonight, as they did yesterday(back to back) and with the Jazz(BBQ chicken).

There is nothing like beating up on Lebron the Lakers and showing them who is boss.



Celtics are the "people's choice" at the beginning of the season and now also....

NBA need a Flex Schedule....

Agreed but not because the 76ers stink and would get blown the fuckout by 30+, but
instead because the Celtics will rest their top 6 players tonight

Don't you love load Management

 

[DC_Dude]

Guess he ain't running for President... Lol

He better increase the amount of money he gives to winston salem state.....We need it bro! lol

Celtics lost by 20+ to the Lakers a month ago. Getting up to play them now is an attempt to save face.

 

[Amajorfucup]

Fuck em. He could have stayed in GS or gone to the Lakers. He placed his bet on dallas and lost. Deal wit it Klay.

Not only do they have the lack of decency to keep that game in national tv.

They still have the audacity to have a person design that, post it and advertise it to us

We going to show you why you should not be #2 in the west

I agree, sixers don't deserve no national games.

Why the “fuck em” though?
